Bioreason's ClassPharmer

Bioreason has just released ClassPharmer, the first module of a new software system for automating analysis of data from screening libraries of compounds. ClassPharmer provides topologically relevant structural classification, placing compounds into classes based on large, significant scaffolds that are learned on the fly. The science underneath includes knowledge-based reasoning and a new MCS algorithm that makes use of the Bioreason's topological key technology.

Some of the issues we had in mind when we created it might be of interest to you, such as...

• QSAR analysis works well only when you have a reasonably homogeneous set of compounds on which to begin the analysis.
• With the noisy results from HTS or computational docking, the class characteristics are really more relevant than any particular compound readout.
• With a diverse set of compounds reporting positive in an assay, classes frequently have naturally overlapping memberships, depending on the scaffold defining the class.
